I fell for the college meme and now I work min-wage at mickyd's because fuck my life. What realistically happens if I just ignore that my student loans exists and never pay them? Should I even bother with trying to? The due date to start paying is this month.

They garnish your wages, put liens on all current and future property. There is no limit to how far they will go to get their money. You cannot shake student loan off, even in death.
Ignoring it will be the worst outcome, because it will ruin your financial life, and the lives of anyone who is tied to you (spouse, kids). You'll never get loans for a car or house. You'll even be denied a career level job, if you are being considered in many positions that conduct credit checks on potential employees.

Imagine not going to a community college where your entire degree is covered by the Pell Grant

You graduated and can't find anything better than McDonald's? What the hell did you major in?

Apply for a deferment or income contingent repayment. Also as you begin paying off the interest on the loan you can right of $2.5k a year.
The worst thing to do is ignore them. Also if you become a teacher the government has a program of loan forgiveness but then you'll need more college &more debt.
